Generative Ai has ruined amusing animal videos on the internet. 5 years ago you could be fairly sure they were real. Now you just have to assume they are fake and that just makes them not funny anymore.

In the latest issue of Doctor Who Magazine Chris Chibnall talks about the type of people he hires to work on his shows. It got me thinking and I wanted to discuss it in a video... the good of the principle but also the potential pitfalls.

While Ive always fought for gun control, the specific targeting of trans people’s Second Amendment rights is a terrifying escalation that has chilling echoes throughout history - perhaps most directly the Nazis targeting Jewish gun ownership in 1930s Germany.

I've overheard enough conversations now to confidently state that half the blokes out there aren't into football, they just say they support a team to fit in. As soon as the questions start, they stutter, mumble and fold. Just have the balls to say "I don't like football"

I'm a solicitor. Too many people make the mistake of not recording anything during redundancy procedures. Many redundancies do not follow the correct legal procedures, but unless you're recording everything you have no way to prove it in a tribunal. HR are not your friends.

Central London is so safe, so sanitised of any grit or edge, so removed from its working class, counter culture communities, as to be depressing. It’s Disneyland. You can queue for Lego, or a Tik-Tok Chinese desert, or bubble tea. Nothing is open past 10pm. Your Nan is fine.

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts. The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative. Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

one thing that's worth remembering with the water situation is that full privatisation is actually very recent, as in most of our lifetimes recent, and it's been a complete fucking unmitigated disaster. The idea that it can't be reversed or this is just 'How It Is' is total bullshit

Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching. Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.
